ELMO: ready for operation
At Photonics West 2014, Menlo Systems introduced ELMO, the unique fiber laser
based on our figure 9® technology. The novel mode-locking mechanism offers
unsurpassed reproducibility and long-term stable operation – tested over more
than 10,000 on/off cycles. With its all-fiber design, ELMO offers excellent stability
and low-noise operation, making it an ideal seed source for fiber amplifiers.
Thanks to the special design the oscillator is maintenance free. It does not
require installation because it is self-starting, just plug in and the system will be
running after 60 seconds.
ELMO and its associated amplifier module are tough, resistant to mechanical
shocks and temperature fluctuations. You could get the proof of this at the Menlo
booth at the Photonics West where a falling billiard ball hit the laser with about
30g without disturbing the laser's function.
ELMO is compact and easily integrated and can be configured to work with
multiple amplifiers making it a highly flexible choice for a wide variety of
demanding applications.
